MS SQL SERVER 2016 INSTALLATION 

 

Introduction

This document describes the installation of SQL Server 2016 Standard Edition. The installation procedure for the Enterprise Edition is similar, but some screens may differ.

Before installing, you should have, at the very least Exact Globe Next product update 409 and Exact Synergy Enterprise product update 254 to work with SQL Server 2016.

In these following steps, it is assumed that you are installing the SQL Server as a new installation or as a new instance:

• For a new installation, there is no MS SQL Server software present in your system. After the installation, you will have one MS SQL Server.
• When installing a new instance, install MS SQL Server next to your current MS SQL Server version. After the installation, you will have multiple MS SQL Servers; the one you have just installed, and the existing one(s) present in your system.

Keep in mind: It is not possible to install SQL Server 2016 as a second instance next to SQL Server 2005.

The steps for installing a new instance are almost the same as the steps for installing the SQL Server in a system where no other versions of SQL Server are present. Where applicable, the difference(s) will be highlighted in this document.

Installing SQL Server 2016

The next step is installing SQL Server 2016. In a standalone environment, you have to perform these steps on the workstation where you work with Exact Globe Next. In all other cases, you have to perform these steps on the server.

When working in a standalone environment, you will have one computer on which you are working with Exact Globe Next. On this computer, both Exact Globe Next and the SQL Server are installed. This is seen as a standalone even when your computer is part of a network, as all software needed to work with Exact Globe Next are installed on this one computer.

Before installing the SQL Server, check the system requirements for the specific SQL Server edition at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143506(v=sql.130).aspx.

When these requirements are met, you can start installing SQL Server 2016.

To install SQL Server 2016:

1. Log in as an administrator on the server (of a workstation in case of a standalone installation).
2. Insert the SQL Server installation DVD into your DVD drive. When the autorun is not performed, open the DVD drive in Windows Explorer and start the installation by clicking Setup.exe.
3. The SQL Server Installation Center screen will be displayed. In this screen, you can view and execute several installation tasks.
